Contract-year LT Joe Thomas hinted he will not sign a new contract with the Browns.

Thomas has yet to decide if he will return for his 12th season, but he seemed to suggest 2018 will be his final year in Cleveland even if he decides to return. "No matter what I decide to do, this is the last year of my contract in Cleveland. I’m also 33 right now," Thomas said. "They need to be planning for somebody else pretty soon down the line whether it’s this year or next year." Thomas missed the first snaps of his career because of a triceps injury last season, but lingering back and knee issues are bigger concerns as he decides whether or not to continue his career. Even if he comes back, it is time for the Browns to start looking toward the future.
